“Ten against nine, with a 4-0 lead for them, it was impossible. The future is bright, we have new players, and sport is all about challenges. I congratulate Real Madrid. We didn’t play eleven against eleven to see how things would go. I congratulate Real Madrid, the first leg decided the tie, I would have liked to play eleven against eleven. Many are playing in the Champions League for the first time, many. In the first few minutes, there and here, we played well. We tried and we were there. I don’t know what would have happened eleven against eleven. We might have lost anyway, but we’ll never know.”
